What Is Your Favorite Burger Franchise Dad?

Franchise Interviews

Last month I posted on LinkedIn a conversation I had with my son titled “What is your favorite burger franchise?” I was surprised how many people enjoyed and responded to the post. It stated the following: Today my son Martin and I went hiking by the Delaware River. It is one of my favorite things to do in Lehigh Valley. My son caught me off guard today and said, “Dad, what is your favorite burger franchise?” I started our podcast Franchise Interviews before he was born. I never realized he took an interest or was paying attention all these years. It turned out to be a long and fun conversation. I never shared with everyone the results of our conversation. One of our favorites we shared in common is Jake’s Wayback Burgers. Many years ago, we picked up Jake’s Burgers for July 4th. Since that moment, it has kind of become a tradition to pick up Jake's on holidays like Memorial Day, which is four days away and July 4th. Of course, McDonald’s was part of the conversation. In honor of Hamburger month, we are going to play our interview with Jake’s and play a roundtable discussion on the movie called “The Founder”, the story of Ray Kroc and the McDonald brothers. Our next hike is scheduled for next week! Perhaps we will continue our conversation on franchising and podcasting. Have a happy Memorial Day weekend!
